Fiscal/Budget Information
Preliminary 2009-10 allocations for Title I, Part A and D, allocations for Title II, Parts A and D; Title III, Part A; and Title IV, Part A; Title VI, Part B (REAP) and advisory suballocations for nonpublic schools are available on our website at: http://www.emsc.nysed.gov/nclb/allocations/
Final allocations for 2009-10 should be available in January 2010.
An FS-10 budget form and a budget narrative must be submitted for each Title in the Consolidated Application Update to provide an explanation of expenditures as they relate to each program. Each FS-10 should include the name of the LEA/Charter School LEA, its 12-digit BEDS Code, and a 10-digit project number.
Project numbers are specific to each LEA/Charter School LEA. For the first six digits of project numbers, all LEAs/Charter School LEAs should use the numbers listed below. For the last four digits, LEAs/Charter School LEAs should use the sequence assigned to them for Title grants in 2008-09. LEAs that have never applied for Title grants should leave the last four digits blank; the Department will assign a sequence upon receipt.
| Title I, Part A & D | 0021 10 |
| Title I, Part A & D ARRA | 5021 10 |
| Title II, Part A | 0147 10 |
| Title II, Part D | 0292 10 |
| Title III LEP | 0293 10 |
| Title III Immigrant | 0149 10 |
| Title IV, Part A | 0180 10 |
| Title VI, Part B | 0006 10 |
To expedite approval of FS-10s, LEAs/Charter Schools LEAs should ensure that the amounts listed in each budget category are the same as what is listed on the budget summary page and that the budget total does not exceed what is available to the LEA/Charter School LEA for that particular Title. To promote accuracy, the Grants Finance website offers an Excel version of the FS-10 as well as NCLB allocation reports for each LEA/Charter School LEA.
Under federal regulation (EDGAR 34 CFR Section 76.708(a)), LEAs/Charter School LEAs may not obligate funds distributed by formula under any of the Titles in the 2009-10 Consolidated Application Update until the Update is submitted in substantially approvable form as determined by the State Education Department. LEAs/Charter School LEAs are encouraged to submit their Consolidated Application Update in advance of the August 31, 2009 deadline. The grant period for all Title grants is September 1 – August 31.
Additional information, including “Fiscal Guidelines” and “Frequently Asked Questions,” is available on the Department’s Grants Finance website.
